    Eh you're clearly very new to this since none of those motor patterns have become ingrained yet. (That's why everything is so wobbly)

    Squats: as long as you avoid lumbar flexion and knees don't cave in, you're probably good to go. Was filmed from quite far away so hard to tell if there's anything wrong with it.
    Incline DB Press: looks fine from that angle.
    Pendlay Rows: well, those aren't pendlay rows - they're bent over rows. Looked fine as well, just remember to keep your back & core tight.
    Face Pulls: I wouldn't concentrate on being explosive since it's not a power movement. Focus should be on controlling the motion and putting the correct muscles into work.

    1. In squats I don't really feel my quadriceps working, but my core. Also, i get shoulder pain from holding that bar for more than 20-30sec.
    2. It supposed to be a Pendlay Row, I need to work on my form.
    3. Face Pulls - Thank you for the advice.
    Routine: Fierce 5.

    OHP: 30kg
    Bench Press: 60kg

    With squats, it's probably helpful to decide whether you want to squat high-bar or low-bar, and then do your YouTube searches accordingly.

    If your shoulders hurt, try widening your grip a little bit. But yeah, hard to tell anything from that distance.
